their interest rate on their checking account is quite good (1.92%,

Clueless in Berkeley
Clueless in Berkeley
07/12/2004 04:07 PMI have written before of my love for my favorite feature in the
Berkeley Daily Planet, the Police Blotter. Today while reading it, I
ran across this absolute gem which caused me to lose a mouthful of hot
Peet's coffee in front of the Cheeseboard. Knife-Wielder Earns
Cellular Domicile A 48-year-old Berkeley man found himself with a new
and tightly confined residence after police busted him for flashing a
knife at a fellow citizen near the corner of Center Street and Martin
Luther King Jr. Way at 9:37 a.m. Friday. The felon seems to have
overlooked that building on the corner and all those blue-clad
badge-wearing folks who pass through its portals en route to their
black-and-white cars. (For those of you unfamiliar with Berkeley
geography, our new police headquarters is at the corner of MLK and
Center.) How do you get a job writing stuff like this? I want one. It

07/19/2004 09:54 AM In Wired's July issue, Contributing writer Cory Doctorow writes
about the movie I, Robot, in a slam at the late Dr. Isaac Asimov
titled Rise of the Machines. I would rather Wired had found someone
who had actually read more than two or three Asimov short stories.
There is a lot in this article that is debatable but presented as
concrete fact, and other "facts" which are downright false.

Clueless Article About Canada's Wi-Fi
Scene
02/16/2004 01:25 PMThis writer seems to enjoy writing as though he's an authority when
it's clear he's not: He's read all the hype about Wi-Fi but gets
enough wrong that he obviously hasn't done his own research. His
general point is that Canada is behind the United States in deploying
hotspots. But he hasn't got very good research to back that up. His
strongest piece of evidence seems to be a conversation he had recently
with one computer programmer who had never heard of Wi-Fi. He goes on
to say that the market is primed to change dramatically because
Canada's largest carriers said they'd create a unified standard to let
customers roam between their networks. This so-called standard was
developed without any of the major existing Canadian Wi-Fi operators,
such as FatPort, and none of the four carriers involved had deployed
hotspots when they set the roaming standard. It's also just a
"standard" (how they'll handle billing, etc.), not a roaming deal. So
the carriers could deploy networks and still not roam. (Meanwhile,
FatPort has built hundreds of locations and secured roaming with
several international networks.) He also pointed to a recent study
that said no hotspots' business model could succeed if the only
revenue source was connection fees. That study is bad news for cafes
in the U.S., he says, because many of them offer access for free. But
the two aren't related. Free hotspot operators have a totally
different business model than those that charge. He closes by pointing
out "guerilla Wi-Fi warriors" in Canada who warchalk. Warchalking is a
great idea and testament to the community behind Wi-Fi, but who has
actually seen a symbol? If this writer's point is that Wi-Fi hasn't
taken off in Canada, then it's doubtful that people there are actually
warchalking....

A Business Model For WiFi Aggregation
A Business Model For WiFi Aggregation
01/09/2004 09:50 PMRobert X. Cringely's latest column discusses
his idea
for a killer WiFi aggregator business model that makes some sense
- but could be very difficult from some significant reasons. He
correctly points out the problems with current WiFi aggregator
business models: they have way too little coverage and way too many
players have their hands in the pie. For each dollar spent at a
hotspot, a portion needs to go to the hotspot owner, the owner of the
network and the aggregator (and potentially others) - and there just
isn't that much money being spent at hotspots in the first place. His
solution is that we need more hotspots, and the way to get more
hotspots is to give away the equipment free. Basically, have a
company that will give you free WiFi equipment in exchange for adding
your hotspot to their network
and giving you free access to the
entire network. This way, he believes, an aggregator would quickly
get to one million hotspots and pretty much guarantee the necessary
level of coverage. The money, then, would come from others who pay
the subscription fee to get on the network - and since the coverage is
so great, and the aggregator no longer needs to share that revenue
with the hotspots, people will be willing to pay up. Maybe. I'm
certainly a fan of leveraging "free" in a promotion to build a
business model, but not when that "free" is very costly. In order to
get this going, the company would need to give away those million
access points (and, probably, handle tech support for them) before
they start making money. While you can bet they'd get a volume
discount (and APs are getting cheaper every day), it's still a pretty
big capital chunk to eat. Then, there are two other big problems I
see. First, which he brushes off, most internet providers say sharing
your connection is a violation of terms of service. Sure, there's the
Speakea
sy exception, but it's still not too common, and I'm not so
convinced (as Cringely is) that they'll just rollover when they find
out what's happening. The second problem is much more fundamental. I
now have two choices if I want to use this fairly vast network of
access points: (1) pay a monthly fee or (2) offer to host my own
hotspot - where I get free equipment and free service. Guess what I'm
going to do? Is there any reason not to get their free equipment just
to get free access everywhere else? Who are the suckers who are
actually going to pay for this service instead of just signing up to
be a provider?
